Hundreds of arrests in Russia clouded Victory Day festivities, and anti-corruption blogger Alexei Navalny, was arrested twice in a single evening. Navalny born June 4, 1976 in Butyn, Moscow region, a Gemini Sun sign with his Moon, and Mars in Leo definitely knows how to motivate the youth to protest. Sill with his Mercury in Taurus he is sensible enough to keep the protestors from reacting violently. The combination of his planetary aspects makes him a formidable voice for those wanting Russia’s leaders to pay attention to the people and their concerns.

Over the next four months Russia will find the people much more vocal especially when Mars moves into the sign of Libra during July, and August squaring Russia’s Capricorn planets.

Vladimir Putin, a Libra Sun sign with a Gemini Moon,and Gemini rising sign will be a force for Navalny to deal with. At the same time, I would think Putin would actually admire the young man’s approach to his beliefs and ideals even if it is creating a disturbance to Putin’s own agenda.

Navalny should actually pay attention to astrology if he wants to understand President Putin and his plans for Russia. Putin may have been reelected as aspecting Mars in Virgo brought criticism his direction, but Jupiter enters Gemini June12 for one year allowing Putin success in his endeavors. Actually if Putin is as smart as I think he is, he would align himself with Navalny and his fellow leaders to transform how the people of Russia see their country, and way of life.

This would benefit Putin’s leadership and popularity, and transform Navalny’s professional and political life.

It seems Mars in Virgo, and the recent square of Mercury and Saturn created criticism of Canada’s new $20 dollar bill.

A lack of knowledge in history, government, and art caused members of some focus groups such as UPI.com to comment, ‘It’s too’ pornographic’ because of partially-clad figures on a monument located in Northern France. Some participants in the focus groups were unaware of the wartime memorial honoring thousands of Canadian servicemen, in particular forgotten soldiers with unmarked graves. The group of women at the top of the statue are known as the Chorus. The most senior figures represent Justice and Peace – the latter with a torch upraised. The figures of Hope, Charity, Honour and Faith are located below Justice and Peace. Truth and Knowledge are positioned on the Western side.

Is the civilized world going back to the dark ages. Why do we look at the nude body with disgust. Can we not tell the difference between a work of art, and a pornographic picture.
